Stereotyped Combination of Hearing and Wind/Gravity-Sensing Neurons in the Johnston’s Organ of Drosophila
The antennal ear of the fruit fly, called the Johnston’s organ (JO), detects a wide variety of mechanosensory stimuli, including sound, wind, and gravity. Like many sensory cells in insect, JO neurons are compartmentalized in a sensory unit (i.e., scolopidium). To understand how different subgroups...
